7 Worst Powders

No. 6: E.L.F. Mineral Foundation, $5 TotalBeauty.com average reader rating: 6.9*Why: "This is not the product for you if you are over 21, need coverage, and have sensitive/oily skin," says one reader. Many others agree, saying this foundation "has no coverage," is "too shimmery" and does "nothing for [their] faces as far as complexion improvement." For fair-skinned readers, "the lightest foundation shade is a little dark" and "gave [their] skin a strange, orangey cast." Readers also say that the "tiny pot won't last you long" and the foundation is more like a "sample-sized" product.

Drug store mineral foundations are crap and most contain chemicals anyway. I wear mineral foundation from Ocean Mist Cosmetics (I've been wear MM for 10 years and this is the BEST I've found and I've tried them all). Though one complaint I've seen almost constantly is people saying a mineral foundation is cakey. Let me tell you this, if you try multiple mineral foundations and they all cake... YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG.
